Conversation with Dwim
comics and animation, everyday glory, geekery, politics and law June 4th, 2008In a “comics world meets real world” crossover sort of way, Dwim sent me a link to an article from The Deseret News about Britain’s Prime Minister helping to stave off Marvel’s “Secret Invasion”:
(11:17:41) Dwim: http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/0,5143,700231575,00.html
(12:58:50) Me: If only we, as Americans, had an alien-fighting political figure.
(12:58:54) Me: Oh, wait…
(13:35:46) Me: No, he’s not really fighting aliens.
(13:35:54) Me: He wants to make them feel more welcome.
(13:35:56) Me: Hm.
(13:36:09) Me: GW… Skrull sympathizer?
(13:36:12) Me: Interesting spin.
(13:36:15) Me: OR
(13:36:21) Me: Is GW a Skrull himself?!
(13:52:12) Dwim: He’s not so much a Skrull as, say, a psychopathic megalomaniac who seeks to consolidate the power of all three brances of government into a single throne while removing the liberties currently enjoyed by his subjects with the excuse of keeping them safe from Muslim boogeymen, and while making his co-conspirators wealthy through a program of endless war.
(13:52:58) Dwim: Also, he enjoys golf, the occasional drink, and banging Laura on the weekends.
(13:54:09) Me: Right, but consider this: If he keeps the weathly/elite happy, they will be much more complacent and docile when their Skrull overlords sweep down upon the planet.
(13:54:24) Me: And the golf, alcohol and Laura items are just fringe benefits.
(13:54:29) Dwim: Have you considered the connection with the Skrull and Bones Society?1
(13:54:35) Me: >.<
(13:54:42) Me: That was bad.
(13:54:46) Dwim: Thank you.
1 -Â For those who didn’t catch the pun (or just didn’t get it):Â Skull and Bones Society
